An XSD schema file for this XML format is available here: JobGroupInput.xsd |
Remote data collection involves a technician travelling to a given location on one or more occasions to collect data and physical items. To represent that process in the import data format, each data collection event is represented as a JobInput that has a unique ID and is made up of one or more JobPartInputs. A JobPartInput represents a single visit to a given location. Each JobPartInput has a target location to visit (ScheduledLocation) along with a set of data items to collect on-site (DataFields) and physical items to collect (ItemsForCollection).
